Theme and development

• Why not all elements of the war are present in the game? Initial versions of the game had over 1000 cards, and included all aspects of the game. In order to publish it, it was necessary to reduce the number of cards to the final 252, leaving out some of the concepts. The images found in te different archives used also conditioned the inclusion of some elements, as images were not found for everything. However, the associated icons were left in the game to show tha it had been developed with them (and so as not to close the door to possible expansions).
